Summary:  View help for Summary This data publication includes raw ring widths (1980-2019) obtained from increment cores of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marsh.) growing in a provenance planting on the campus of The University of Vermont. The provenance planting was established in 1978 and is comprised of several sources spanning the historical range of green ash. Nine sources were selected for increment coring in October 2019 based on the distribution of their seed source origin within the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone (PHZ) Map - from the coldest (PHZ = 3) to the warmest source (PHZ = 7). We sampled a total of 44 trees and provide the diameter at breast height for each tree as well as the raw ring widths for 1-2 cores per tree, resulting in 82 series of ring width measurements.
